WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
For 2025, though, Ping might have transmuted lead into gold (figuratively, of course) with its all-new G440 iron — the brand’s latest take on a game-improvement iron that looks and feels nothing like one.
When it comes to a game-improvement iron, distance is a given, and most models in this category excel at delivering it. But with the G440, Ping took a new approach, ensuring that, in addition to added distance, these irons also are easier to control.
Distance and control are achieved via a low-profile head shape for a lowered CG, combined with a thinner clubface for shots that fly higher and generate more spin on the greens. The PurFlex cavity badge also aids in producing more distance by expanding and contracting through impact, while enhancing the overall sound and feel.

In addition to helping golfers hit longer shots, the G440 irons actually are 1/8” longer than the G430s, making it easier to hit the ball higher. According to Ping, longer shafts also makes it easier to manage distance gaps across the set. The set comes with new AWT 3.0 steel shafts, featuring ascending weights that are lighter in the longer irons and heavier in the shorter ones.
The new G440 iron features chrome finishes on the back and inside the PurFlex cavity badge, adding to its shiny appearance. The design makes it look more like a player’s iron and less like a traditional game-improvement model.
